MISS HEARD WEDS MR. R. H. WEAVER
Two Popular Young People the Contracting Parties in a Beautiful Home Wedding 
Wednesday.
     On Wednesday afternoon at 3:30 o’clock, a marriage, beautiful in every 
detail was solemnized at the home of the bride’s parents, Capt. and Mrs. G. D. 
Heard, on Floyd Street, when Miss Mattie Susan Heard and Mr. Richmond Holley 
Weaver, of Mansfield, were joined in wedlock in the presence of a large number 
of relatives and invited guests.
     The home was lovely in its decorations of flowers typical of the autumn 
season. Ferns and roses were used in profusion and the scene could not have 
been made more beautiful.
     Miss Bessie Heard, sister of the bride and Mr. Joe S. McGarity, a warm 
friend of the groom, were the only attendants.
     The ceremony was most impressively performed by Rev. J. D. Radford, pastor 
of the Methodist Protestant Church at Carrollton.
     The large number of handsome and useful presents displayed attested the 
popularity of the young couple.
     Immediately after the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Weaver left amid a shower of 
best wishes and congratulations for Mansfield, where, in the evening, they were 
tendered an elegant reception at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Harwell.
     Mrs. Weaver is the eldest daughter of Capt. and Mrs. Heard and has by her 
amiable disposition and lovely traits of character, won a host of friends who 
wish for her all the happiness possible with the noble gentleman with whom she 
has joined heart and hand.
     Mr. Weaver came  to Georgia from Alabama some three years ago and the 
Almand Supply and Hardware Co., for whom he has been the popular and most 
competent bookkeeper ever since, thing entirely too much of him to lose his 
services hence, he continues with this large and prosperous firm. His 
numberless friends feel he is most worthy of the fair bride he has won.
     Mr. and Mrs. Weaver are now at home to their friends in Mansfield.
